good job my friend i've never listened to classical either and the closest i've come to piano was japanese, more so along the lines of final fantasy but this i can definitely appreciate. i got goosebumps from it within the first minute. love it at 2:06

if you haven't heard japanese piano from final fantasy orchestrated you definitely want to check it out because i'd say it comes really close to this and is the thing that gives me goosbumps the most in piano.

(this is a remake of it by fans, sounds exactly the same) and i'll admit i cried to this



please guys put your favorite song or 2-3 songs with youtube links so we can easily figure out why you like the artist and the reason why they're good. its hard for me to look up people and decide if i like them or not by clicking on a random song that may or may not be a good representation of their best.





huge nostalgia bomb man.. I was never a big FF fan until this one. I was completely hooked the moment I put in this disk and heard the opening theme music. That is a great rendition.

To the people posting bands... It's not best band you've ever heard. It's the best musician. It's in the title...

the musician who can a million different things

i can't put 1 specific musican as the best i've ever heard but girl talk is the most unique and fun to listen to. he's a mashup artist. his newest album is an 80 minute track filled with nothing but samples. it's fan-fucking-tastic. he makes miley cyrus and lady gaga sound good when mashed with hip hop beats or the other way around. it's craaazy

get to like 2:40 when he mixes in beyonce with ante up from hardcore hip hop group m.o.p and makes it sound like the best thing i've ever heard

I don't really have musical respect for anyone who considers drake talented.


well that's your opinion so you can stay out of this thread.
last i checked he's making millions producing music i think that's talent.


first of all this thread is based on opinion, its not a drake fanclub thread. its a thread about musicians. if he doesnt think drake is talented, then who the fuck are you to tell him his opinion is wrong?
last time i checked, you dont have to make millions to be talented, and you dont have to be talented to make millions.


first off, i honestly don't give a fuck since the guy i named isn't drake. and second, this is a thread i made about music sharing and contribution which you already knew, is based on opinion.
if you have nothing to contribute at the end of the day except support the opinion of a troll, STFU.
how i happen to rationalize why someone is talented or not, is up to me to believe but does not encompass all artists. if this was true the weeknd would be making millions, which he doesn't.
so who the fuck are you to come into this thread, not contribute shit, and think you have a valued opinion?


In a world where facts are irrelevant, Either all opinions are valuable or none are.


QFT

Stop telling him this is an opinion thread if you don't even respect his opinion, OP.

Also, take it to PMs if you're not contributing to the thread. OP, you need to manner up. Drake is awful, so what.


trolls keep feeding trolls love it. you come at me with BM and you expect me to to be GM? lol what fucking world do you live in? let me make it clear for you, this thread is not about who you hate or who you don't think is talented, cause i can go into any music thread and read that bull shit. this is a thread about who you think is good and why. leave your negative opinions out of it. i guess it's asking too much of people to just contribute, respect our differences in taste and leave out the negativity.


honestly, youve been more BM than anyone else in the thread. you told some to gtfo because he didnt agree with you, and youve been a dick to several other people in the thread. there are trolls in every thread, and if youre so adamant about every single one that pops up, and you get pissed off so easily, then youre better off not even making a thread until you can handle it in a mature manner. "i guess it's asking too much of people to just contribute, respect our differences in taste and leave out the negativity" you say to the posters who dont like what you like? makes a whole lotta sense.
and for the record, the musician i love listening to is Buckethead.

+ Show Spoiler +








wrong yet again. i have never in this thread out rightly attacked someone based on their differences and preference in taste of music. i love how you can twist the scenario around. in fact i have only openly respected everyone's contribution in music whether or not i may be a fan. and i also love how you can somehow paint someone as guilty of BM because they defended their own opinion or their own taste in music for that matter. you need to look at what's truly "mature" and grow up. cause bashing someone for a certain type of music "makes a whole lotta sense" you truly are the authority on what's good and what's not.

McDonalds has sold billions of hamburgers, but I wouldn't exactly call them talented at making hamburgers.
Quality of music =/= business.

That said, I'll chime in with my favorite, though I wouldn't go calling them the best.

Tool.

This is a hard one...it would most likely be The Mountain Goats. John Darnielle is one of the best flat-out songwriters I have ever heard. each song is a wonderful story in itself. Here is not the best example, but a song that I will always listen to:

i was going to post these too i'm going to offer going to georgia instead though. it could be almost any song though


Yeah, Going to Georgia has been said to be one of the greatest songs ever written by All music Guide. I play that song at my own shows, when I used to play shows a lot. It is so amazing.

The best musician I've heard live is James Morrison. I also got the opportunity to play with him as well, at his own concert. Was pretty chronic


As a trumpet player myself, I just watch in absolute awe, and he has a great stage presence too (always funny)

But anyway if I could only listen to one band?

well that wasn't the ONLY all encompassing reason to why he's good but one of the testimony more or less. there's a million ways to rationalize why someone's good or successful and that was the first one that came to mind. now obviously i have to put a idiot warning on that since by no means does it 100% justifies his success nor to the sole reason why he's good just to clear that up. and i don't mean that no one else is good, if they're not making money. hope that helps.
i don't want to be getting responses like "well soulja boy makes millions, he's good by your logic" responses lolol.

keep up the good work guys, i'm giving everyone's music a listen/try without pre-judgements. i definitly want to expand the horizon of my taste from my little old preferences of japanese/rnb/hip hop genre/rock

Yes is amazing, I was thinking about posting them too. But, since you already did that, I'll post a nice 2nd option. For all the Jazz lovers out there, may I present, Jamie Cullum.

First, a cover of a classic:


Next, an original, that for the most part sticks to his Jazz roots


And finally, Jazz mixed with a bit of dance-type music. It really shows how he's able to move seamlessly through different genres without making it seem weird. He's also done covers of such varied artists as Rihanna, The White Stripes, and Jimi Hendrix successfully, giving each song his own style.

Lots of good bands/musicians have been named in here. Honestly though, my absolute favorite musician right now is Childish Gambino. Not only are his beats sick, but his lyrics are easily the best that I've ever heard.

Not to mention he's a great comedian/actor. Anyway, here are my top 3 favorite songs of his:

Obviously Thom Yorke from Radiohead His raw talent, combined with incredible intelligence and passion make him the best artist ever.

You've got to love Radiohead's nerdyness, too


I totally agree. It's my absolute favorite for about last two years and i can't see how it can change in near future. Every piece of music he works on is masterpiece. And he is still rather young (about 40) and don't have bad behaviors. I can see he will dominate for maybe 10-20 years more on the scene. He is the last bonjwa in music (Starcraft analogy ).

Ha. I did read past the title too. Guess I was too excited to post a musician. Shame on me.

Pity, though. Individual musicians would have made this thread at least somewhat unique. There's a gazillion of these for bands.
